Questions & Answers
If you smoke before eating a big bowl of popcorn, it could hold the bowl you smoke from. Thanks for your question! I hope that answers it!
Yes, in fact. The lukewarm water I carried was thick and heavy Here's a Starbucks cup of coffee the size of my palm. If you don't want it to spill over the top, drink it all the way down to the halfway point.
My old standard cage could only hold 5 ounces) just fine (they would fall over and out)
The finish inside the cage where the water bottles rub against it eventually wears out after a while, resulting in water bottles that are ruined from rubbing against the aluminum. As a result of the aluminum on the bottles, your hands constantly get dirty, which leads to getting your clothes dirty, as well as getting the tape on the handle bar dirty.
Selected User Reviews For Ibera Bicycle Lightweight Aluminum Water Bottle Cage
These cages were supposed to make me like them. Though the cages are lightweight and hold bottles well, the finish on the cages has started to wear off after only four rides. The bottles are rubbing against it as you can see in the pictures. Fortunately, this isn't the worst thing however, I find that the black residue from the bottles gets on my hands, which takes it to anything I touch (handlebar tape, face, clothes). Consequently, I would not buy the product again or recommend it to others.
In this respect, these work like a charm They still hold the bottles just fine after almost 4,000 miles of running. But, the paint on the inside of my water bottles has come off, and I now have half-black Camelback podium bottles (which are white-ish) which have been in these cages for over a year. In the near future, I will replace these cages with something else since I just obtained new bottles. Attached is an actual picture of what happened to my water bottles after they were locked in.
The item has received such good reviews that I do not know how it got them. It's been sitting here on my desk for a couple of months, and I couldn't wait to throw it out. My problem is that the black coating on the metal has been constantly wearing off due to friction with my water bottle, resulting in a nasty grey paste that constantly coats my water bottle and hands after each ride. I highly recommend you to skip this and buy something that is designed to last.
My water bottles used to fly off my bike flinging themselves into traffic and smashing into 20 cars, so I decided to buy these to replace some cheapo cages that always felt like they would cause a major I found that I required a more definite hold on a heavy bottle when I got a set of large 32 ounce bottles for long rides. It is a pleasure to use these cages. The screws included in the package allowed them to be installed in seconds. The look good, although I suppose looks can be subjective. The most important thing is that they are able to hold my giant water bottles securely. My bottle has to be pushed in quite a bit in order to stay seated. There's no way the bottle is going to slip out, so I see that as a plus. The overall quality of these products is excellent, they are well made and would highly recommend. The product was excellent and I would purchase it.
Since the prices were great and my desire is to have a matching pair of bottle cages, I purchased the pair. After they were returned to me, I had to return them. The pros are This is 1. A classic bottle cage is heavier than a modern bottle cage. Compared to other cages
3, this one is a good deal. I would like to use metal for the job because it seems strong and sturdy enough
4. This cage takes up less room than a traditional cage, which is useful in some situations. Cons This is 1. In my case, my bottle is black, and the finish rubs off on your hands and the bottle after you're done using it. Adding a polished option without paint would be a great addition. 1. 2. No slots or mounting holes can be found on the device. My final cage was slightly offset so that two bottles could fit in my frame without hitting each other. I added two additional holes to make this possible. With this cage, it is simply not possible to drill alternative holes, so an adapter would be required if you needed to offset the cage*3. With a classic cage, you can bend it to fit your bottle just a little looser or tighter by hand. This cage made it difficult for me to do so. I couldn't get it to fit standard bottles because it was just As my rides are always on smooth surfaces, I can have a looser fit, which makes access to the seat easier in the middle of a ride.
Overall, this product did not work for me, and I returned If the mounting slots had been utilized instead of holes and the finish coat had been better, this would have been a staple.
I mean, it appears to be When I had to cut through it, it was really hard! As a result, all of the screws were of such bad quality that they damaged the entire product. It was decided to move the cage once I had installed it initially. Since I purchased a separate rear seat post extension, almost by accident I chose to install it on the same post I had purchased the seat extension. As a result, I had to cut the screw through the cage in order to remove it. In addition, the damage to my seat post extension - which was more expensive than the cost of this product - resulted in the extension of my seat cage being unusable. But the frustration that it cut into half of my day is the most important. In terms of cage quality, it is okay the first few times I used it. I am not sure how I would have handled it if I had installed it on my carbon down tube. However, eventually, due to the aluminum construction of the cage, the ball starts to slide around. As for me, I often did not remember to refill my Camelbak hydration bottles and had to stop in the middle of a ride to retrieve them. Taking a break from my normal tempo. I would not recommend that product to anyone!.
Light as a feather. The item arrived on time. I did not use the bolts that came with the item, just the ones I had I like the design of this bottle cover a lot. It fits my Polar bottle perfectly. So my bottle is in perfect alignment with my frame, I have the bottom hold at the perfect place. Logos on anything do not appeal to me, so all I have to complain about is the IBERA logo on the side, but they have to advertise somewhere. A logo on the inside would have been even better (I would have preferred it).
This is the only thing I dislike about my bike. If you look at my photo, you will see why In the photo, you can see how my downtube gets covered in mud while I ride, and that means any bottles I carry get soiled as well (the cage can be seen). A CamelBak Podium Dirt Series bottle (with a cap) has been the only bottle I've found to work. Apart from that, I worried that a bottle cage may not be able to secure my bottle properly. This one does, surprising to say the least. My superbike rides aren't quite as fast as other people's Even though I ride aggressively, I do a decent amount of downhill, rock gardens, etc. Now I'm not claiming that you will never lose a bottle, but I have yet to lose one in the 500 miles I've had.
